This study was performed to evaluate the effects of chicken breast meat on the quality of mackerel sausages. The mackerel sausages were manufactured by additions of 5%, 7%, and 10% of chicken breast meat. The lightness of mackerel sausages showed no significant differences between the control and addition groups. The redness increased in a dose-dependent manner, but the yellowness decreased sig...

Two low-pathogenicity (LP) and two high-pathogenicity (HP) avian influenza (AI) viruses were inoculated into chickens by the intranasal route to determine the presence of the AI virus in breast and thigh meat as well as any potential role that meat could fill as a transmission vehicle. The LPAI viruses caused localized virus infections in respiratory and gastrointestinal (GI) tracts. Virus was ...

The objective of this study was to compare the characteristics that define the quality of Woorimatdag (TM) (WM, a certified meat-type commercial Korea indigenous chicken breed) and a commercial broiler breed (Ross, CB). Two hundred WM and 200 CB chickens that were 1-d-old and mixed sex were obtained from a commercial hatchery and randomly assigned to floor pens (20 chickens per pen, 3.0×2.0 m) ...

Objective: This study aimed to determine phenotypic correlations between carcass part yields (breast and thigh yield) meat quality characteristics (pHu, lightness, redness, yellowness, chroma, hue, thawing loss, cooking water holding capacity, texture) in Japanese quails.Material Methods: was carried out on a total of 130 quails with mixed sexes. Twenty-four hours after slaughter, pHu color mea...

Both chicken meat and egg is excellent foodstuff due to their compositions of amino acids, monoand polyunsaturated fatty acids and vitamins. There is evidence that functional feed ingredients can improve the meat yield and egg quality (Patten and Waldroup, 1988; Izat et al., 1991; Mahfudz et al., 1996). In this study, we examine the effect of feed ingredients such as ethanolic extract of shochu...

This study was conducted to compare carcass characteristics and physico-chemical meat quality in two different genotype ducks raised under identical feeding and rearing conditions. A total of ninety 1-d-old Korean native ducks (KND, n = 45) and commercial meat-type ducks (Grimaud, n = 45) were fed same experimental diets during 56 d and 42 d, respectively to obtain similar slaughter weights. Th...

A respective number of pigeon and quail were purchased from Churkhai Bazar, Mymensingh at their marketing weight to compare yield quality characteristics meat. The birds then slaughtered the meat compared against live weight. samples breast, thigh drumstick kept 4°C for 24 hours. Findings reveal that thigh, drumstick, head, liver, gizzard, heart, neck shank% significantly higher in but feather ...

A total of 240 Japanese quail chicks (1 d old) were used in a 42-d trial to study the effects of Artichoke leaf powder and vitamin E on growth performance and meat quality. This experiment was performed as a completely randomized design with 4 replicates of 15 quails in each, using a 4×2 factorial arrangement with diet and gender as the main effects. Four dietary treatments were formulated by a...

Objective: Epidemiologic data do not provide consistent evidence for an association between consumption of meat and breast cancer risk. We conducted a hospital-based case-control study during April and July 2010 among Iranian women to investigate associations between dietary meat intake, its types and breast cancer risk. Methods: One-hundred consecutively recruited cases with newly diagnosed br...

The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effect of dietary fat type and level on broiler meat quality. A 2 × 3 factorial arrangement with 2 types of fat including neutralized sunflower soapstock (NSS) and soybean oil (SO) at 3 levels of fat inclusion (2, 4, and 6%) was used with 5 replicates per treatment using 750 one-day-old broiler chicks in a completely randomized design. At t...
